The global and domestic landscape is one of turmoil and indecision. Everywhere one looks there is chaos and potential disaster, whether in the financial, economic, political or military sphere. Since the beginning of the post World War II era there has been one constant that has been the stabilizing force in the world: the stature, power and influence of the United States. In the matter of a few short years the Obama presidency has deliberately and overwhelmingly eroded that distinction resulting in his goal of global instability.
Barack Obama assumed the office of the Presidency as a man brought-up and steeped in 1960’s radicalism as well as his Kenyan father’s rabid anti-colonialism, which advanced the doctrine that America, as the lone Western super-power, represented the evil nature of colonialism and capitalism’s exploitation of the masses. Whether there was any truth in this assertion or the United States had ever been guilty of these sins was irrelevant. The material and military success of America and the West could only have come about from expropriating the wealth and labor of the peoples of the world, therefore what is defined as western civilization must be destroyed.
It is a simplistic and emotional argument to make, and one that refuses to take into account the basic nature of the human race and its failings and foibles. Mankind always has and always will have as their preeminent trait the need to survive, and to that end human beings are susceptible to committing crimes and exploiting their fellow man. Thus any society will always have many failings, but the key measure of any civilization is what it does to control these tendencies and strive for an equitable culture. No nation or culture in history has done more to advance the well-being of mankind than the United States and Western civilization.
